Teresa Manning

Former Deputy Assistant Secretary for the Office of Population Affairs

Who is Teresa Manning?

Teresa Manning spent her career trying to outlaw abortion and undermine access to birth control. She’s falsely claimed that “contraception doesn’t work,” yet from May 2017 to January 2018 she oversaw Title X — the nation’s program meant to ensure that people with low incomes can access birth control and other essential reproductive health care. In this role, Manning had the power to roll back access to birth control for the four million people who use Title X health services each year.
